Bitcoin closed August up 25 percent, then spent the week being repriced twice by two different Fed officials.

Underneath the noise, the structure of the market changed more than the price did.

Stack by me lost NOK 10.7 million last year and revenue halved. The company is now looking to raise up to NOK 20 million.

It would be the fifth raise since 2021, on a crowdfunding platform that has never taken on a Norwegian company before.

Bitcoin rose 19 percent this week. Much of the buying came from people who had bet it would fall.

NYSE is still building a venue for tokenised securities. Bullish traded its own tokenised shares. BitGo bought a SpaceX share live on its earnings call and borrowed against it.
